the rehabilitation of sandy desertified land in various dryland ecosystems by different management practices has a great potential to increase aggregate stability and improve soil quality. however, plants in general may have a different ability to sustain soil. the objective was to determine the effects of reclamation practices including haloxylon ammodendron and atriplex canescens plantation o...

abstract the saturated hydraulic conductivity (ks) is an important physical property of soil. the direct measurement of this property in soils is a difficult and time consuming process. pedotransfer functions (ptfs) provide an alternative by estimating soil parameters from more readily available soil data. the objective of this study is to determine effective factors on soil hydraulic conductiv...

physical properties are often required for designing post harvest handling and processing equipment for agricultural products. persimmon (khormandy cultivar) is rich in vitamin a, calcium, potassium, tannic acid and antioxidant phenolic compounds. in this study changes in the physical properties of persimmon fruit during storage were studied. properties such as fruit dimensions, mass, geometric...

homogeneity and uniformity of soil particles is a most potent factor which affects soil spectral signatures. geometric standard deviation of soil particles (?g) exhibits the homogeneity of soil components. this study presents the influence of ?g on spectral studying of soil geometric mean particle diameter as well as lime. the study was conducted in pol-e-dokhtar using the data set of lissiii-p...

safflower is a strategic plant regarding to its valuable nutrition value (45% extractable oil) and industrial uses. due to massive import of edible oil to the country as well as high potential for safflower cultivation, the research on production of safflower for oil extrusion purpose is of remarkable importance. the design of various processing and oil extraction units and also their optimizat...

Fe-Cr-Al alloy nanopowders were successfully prepared by electrical wire explosion method in ethyl alcohol media. The formation of FeCr-Al alloy nanopowder was monitored by X-ray diffraction. The alloy powders have spherical shape and nanometer size. The alloy powders prepared by the electrical wire explosion method have main crystal structures of bcc Fe-Cr alloy. The geometric mean diameter an...
